"Dawddy!! " Ryan's excited squeal broke the silence, running as fast as his little feet could carry him, he wounded his arms around his father's legs.
"Can Aw--ora stay, please? Gwor--fina is too mean! she told Miss Aw--ora to leave." He pouted. Tremont's gaze shifted to the two women, one who had steam puffing from her ears and the other who wore a neural look.Georgina's lips tightened with barely suppressed anger, she walked over to Tremont."I'll tell you exactly what it is! This woman isn't qualified for Ryan! She's even teaching him to disrespect me! See what he is now saying about me and it all because of her." She pointed a finger at Aurora and shifted her gaze to Tremont, hurtful tears blurring her eyes."That's not true! I'll never teach him anything bad." Aurora spoke defensively, her gaze shifted to Ryan who was still clutching his father's legs tightly.Georgina seemed to grow eCHAPTER NINETEEN~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Aurora felt a light pat on her shoulders, she shrugged it off, clinging desperately to the slumber.She dreamt of Sammie, she saw their happy moments, his laughter made her heart warm, she didn't want to open her eyes. She knew if she did, she would return to the lonely reality. Where it was cold and empty.The disturbance came again and this time it didn't stop, the jump was continuous, up and down the bed, it came with a voice."Wakie Wake "A childlike voice. Her eyes fluttered open and she met curious ones peering down at her. Her eyes widened, she stared at the little boy continuously, her heart hammering hard.She had found her son!It hadn't been a dream! When she had gone to sleep last night, she thought she would wake up to see herself in that small motel. She was in Tremont's Stones's house!Ryan was here with her!Emotions
CHAPTER TWENTY ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The cemetery was quiet except for a few birds chirping in the sky, the day was colorful and sunny, contrasting Tremont's gloomy expression. Georgina stood to her feet after placing the colorful flowers on the tombstone. Her eyes were red-rimmed. "Four years has gone passed in a blink of an eye. " She whispered. Indeed, it's been four years since Steve, her brother passed away from the car crash, she had sustained a heavy injury that had injured her right leg. "You still don't think it was your fault, do you? " Tremont's eyes were dark, he had been the one driving that day, the car had spiraled out of control, the breaks had been faulty. Even though everyone agreed that it was an accident, the guilt still twisted his heart even today. How great friends he and Steve had been! Georgina was Steve's little sister who had always pursued after Tremont, she had fallen for him for the first time she s
CHAPTER TWENTY ONE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"You are mean! I want Miss Aw--ora! " Ryan cried when Georgina led him to his room, if she heard Aurora's name one more time, Georgina felt as though her head would explode. She gripped Ryan's shoulders hard enough for him to cry out."Keep quiet you idiot! I don't want to hear that name ever from your mouth, she's not your mother! I'm going to be! " She gritted."do--n't like you! I'll tell dawddy! " He sobbed, struggling to free himself from the pressure of her sharp nails. Georgina laughed an ugly one that made Ryan tremble backward in fear."You are a toddler, why do you talk too much? Your dad has been spoiling you a lot, but that will soon change, I will become his wife, and if you don't behave I might just squeeze the life out of you! " She ached to wring his little neck but feared it would leave a mark that Tremont might notice. She and Tremont would bear their own children, a motherless br
CHAPTER TWENTY TWO~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Linnet closed the door behind them, Aurora wondered about the woman's secrecy. Linnet's continuous scrutiny made her feel even more uncomfortable."Why did you bring me here?" She broke the silence.Linnet smiled and walked to the bed, she sat down and crossed her legs."What do you think about my son? "That wasn't something Aurora expected her to ask, she recovered from her surprise after some seconds."He's a good employer...As well as a good father " She added after a thought.Linnet nodded as though in understanding and Aurora wondered if asking about Tremont had been the reason Linnet invited her."Is that all? ...He's rich, striking handsome, which woman wouldn't want that? You told me you were single."Linnet paused her eyes regarding Aurora from head to toe." With a little help, you wouldn't look so bad as well. Tell me, do you feel attr
CHAPTER TWENTY THREE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"You look so beautiful! " Juliette gushed, her eyes wide and mouth hung open."Of course, Only the best of the best deserves to be with Tremont."Georgina smiled smugly at her best friend who wore an awestruck look."That old Linnet always bore a grudge against me, I hope she won't take it out on you" Georgina's mother, Vera Stanford, spoke, wearing a hateful expression."I know how to deal with her, she will be out of our family in no time. " Georgina waved her hand as though the matter was insignificant.For the Stanford family, Georgina's marriage to Tremont was good business. The Stanford company was on the verge of bankruptcy. Now, they were assured that with the new relationship, their soon to be son-in-law would be more inclined to invest in their company."Your father is so proud of you today! I will go get him!" Vera walked out of the room.Georgina was filled w
CHAPTER TWENTY FOUR~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Loud gasps echoed the large wedding hall.The woman in the wedding dress wasn't Georgina!What was happening!Tremont couldn't believe his eyes as he stared at Aurora.His first thought had been maybe something had happened to Georgina, but no reason would justify why Aurora could have replaced Georgina as his bride.He just married her!Shock, laced with disbelief and anger raced through him."What the hell is happening? Where is Georgina?!" He hissed at Aurora.Her face was pale, her reluctance to speak annoyed him to know ends.Close friends and relatives and important business partners along with some reporters he had brought to witness his wedding were all speaking in loud voices.Photos were being taken, this would make tomorrow's headlines."I...I'm sorry. " Tremont thought he heard her say, but he couldn't be too s
CHAPTER TWENTY FIVE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Tremont walked out of the room in long strides, Georgina went after him, placing an arm on his shoulders."Where are you going? What do you plan to do!"There was no response from him.They reached outside the house and Georgina caught sight of the hateful Aurora who was outside the gates, her heart was boiling with fury.Tremont stared at Aurora who was still dressed in the white wedding gown that was almost the same complexion as her skin, some strands of her hair were scattered all over her face, her eyes were wide in what almost seemed like fright which gave Tremont the first impression that perhaps she had been forced to do whatever she did. He shoved off the thought quickly, renewed rage swept across his heart, he would never be fooled again by that innocent-looking face!Even as furious as he was, he still wanted to hear her explain."I'll give y
CHAPTER TWENTY SIX~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~In Stanford's residence, Georgina paced restlessly, Tremont had accompanied her to explain the whole situation to her parents.While Mr. Stanford who had only just returned from the hospital and Tremont discussed, Vera dragged her daughter's arm and led her away from the well-furnished living room."All of this is Tremont's fault, if only he had married you earlier, that wench wouldn't have had this opportunity to ruin your wedding! " Georgina looked angry and unhappy, Tremont had been deceived by Aurora as well, the only thing she couldn't understand was why he allowed her to continue to live in the house.Tremont's mind wasn't something she could comprehend even though she had known him for years. Was her guess right that Tremont had developed a liking for that slut?"I hate her! I want to rip out those eyes of hers! He wants her to live with him until the divorce, he also didn't want me t
